| 0:00.0 | Let's go. Let's go. Very money, money, money, moikano. My man, doing his thing, man. Beautiful work by him, though, by the way. Hey, by the way, happy Easter, everyone. Happy Easter tomorrow. Big Angie's obviously out there in, I think, Florida with his family and spent Easter with them. So I just wanted to say to everyone, hey, happy Easter. Hope you guys all have a wonderful day tomorrow, whether you guys go to church, whether you don't, whether you spend time with family, whether you don't. But I wish you guys all the very best. And I want you guys to enjoy this time, whether with your family, your friends, even if it's just by yourself, in peace, whatever makes you happy. But happy Easter, everyone. Hey, but enough about that. |
| 0:40.3 | Let's go ahead and talk about the fights tonight. The UFC fight night main event tonight was |
| 0:44.8 | Moycano versus Chris Duncan. I actually thought Chris was going to get this done. I actually |
| 0:49.8 | picked Chris to win this fight. I don't know. I just thought maybe the age. I thought maybe just |
| 0:54.1 | the miles on Moycano. Also, too know. I just thought maybe the age. I thought maybe just the |
| 0:54.5 | miles on Moycano also too. I think just all the other things that Moe Conno is involved in. He's got his gym. He's got his podcast. He's got so many things going on. And I went through a part in my career where I was opening gyms and I was running gyms. And it just so happened to be kind of like towards the twilight of my |
| 1:11.2 | career I was like 37 30 36 37 somewhere in there when I was fighting benson I literally |
| 1:16.4 | opened my gym three weeks before I fought venson so huge mistake but I was already in the process |
| 1:20.9 | of open it um when they called me asking me if I wanted to fight benson and I said yeah but I actually |
| 1:26.5 | was already in the process of opening it when they asked me if I want to fight Pettus for the title um but yeah so look |
| 1:31.8 | this is this is one of those things man two teammates having to fight the UFC has a tendency |
| 1:37.4 | sometimes to try and get this going and it's okay this is part of the game this is this is really |
| 1:42.8 | I've always said to myself I said look if I'm going to fight my teammate it's got to is part of the game this is this is really i've always said to myself i said look if |
| 1:45.8 | i'm going to fight my teammate it's got to be for the goal in this situation moi con getting a little bit |
| 1:50.3 | older chris kind of on the rise um and i thought it was a great fight i thought honestly like |
| 1:56.2 | look duncan wasn't out of it until he got clipped he got hit with the beautiful left hook |
| 2:00.2 | and it was just a great exchange got sat down down. And then from then all, you could tell he took the shot he took. And then the follow-up shots from the top position, nice shots from there. I mean, look, Moe Connell looked fantastic tonight. Absolutely fantastic. And I've always said this is that when fighters are fighting someone they're familiar with, at least in |
| 2:18.4 | my case, is you tend to get the best out of them. I was so familiar with Gilbert Melendez that I just, |
| 2:25.7 | when I came out, I just knew what to expect. I just knew his power. I knew his, his wrestling, |
| 2:32.5 | I knew his cardio, I knew his heart. I knew all those things. |
| 2:35.4 | And I knew how prepared I had to be. And there's that just, I think you, you end up, |
| 2:40.9 | you're more focused, you're more dialed in. You see everything. Just so crystal clear. |
